RAK Thanksgiving dinner

Members of Republicans Abroad and guests celebrated Thanksgiving on November 29 at the VFW Canteen in Seoul.  About 24 people came out. 

Special guest "Bernard" Cho Jae-hyeong, Director of Strategic Projects for the Jeju Free International City Development Center briefly talked about how Jeju province is developing itself as a modern regional business center for Asia.  We appreciate Mr. Cho's taking the time to join us.

Thanks to Bob Gilbert for arranging the food purchase and John Lee for picking it up.  Thanks also to the volunteers who brought additional food as well as the cutting board and two rice cookers.

I would also like to thank the folks at the VFW for giving us a hospitable welcome to the Canteen and for their cooperation in setting it up.

Here are a couple of pictures.
